mal waiting list and a scheduling policy which allows patients to start treatment when they want to. And patients only see one orthodontist with Dr Ong there from start to finish. Traditional metal braces, clear braces and even invisible lingual braces that are fitted onto the inner surfaces of the teeth are available at the clinic. Staff also use Invisalign - clear, plastic, custom-fitted splints that fit over the teeth and help straighten them without the need for braces. But the main strength of the clinic is the use of state-of-theart technology such as computer-aided visualisation software
to demonstrate various treatments and their effects allowing patients to gain an in-depth understanding of the proposed treatment. There is also a flexible, nofuss payment plan and costs of treatment and expected duration of treatment are always discussed beforehand, so there are no surprises. No referral is needed and before and after school appointments are available. The clinic at 236 Ormond Road, Narre Warren South, is open four days a week from Monday to Thursday. Phone 8790 6288.
